BENGALURU: Nikita Singhania, the estranged wife of Bengaluru techie Atul Subhash, who allegedly died by suicide, has denied the allegations of harassment, asserting that it was actually she who had been harassed by her husband.
During questioning, Nikita claimed she didn’t harass her husband; instead, she was harassed by him. She claimed she was staying away from him for almost three years. If she harassed him for money, why would she stay away from him, she was quoted as saying.
